Politics is not a beauty contest.
They dont choose the best - the choose the one that want it the most.
The one that is investing his billions - and making it happen.
You can bet broke Raila had no 3 billion Kshs to pay off Kalonzo to forego his ambition for PORK.
Gideon paid. Gideon bought himself the DPORK
Gideon will therefore demand DPORK or Kalonzo cheque bounces - you can bet most of it are future dated cheques based on key milestones - sijui DPM hio Munya will be given
And that is climb-down because Gideon wanted to be PORK.
In fact they could still dump Raila
Politics haina kupendana.
On the other side - Gachagau is super corrupt with late Brother Gachagua - made billions since Moi era to now.
Many in Kenya Kwanza - even I dont want him
But reality is forcing us to love him.
He paid 800M to Ruto (Weta was paid the same) - according to many romours
So he's get it - unless someone else in Mt Kenya can rush to Ruto with 2 billion Kshs.
Ruto himself was paid 5B kshs by mama ngina in 2013 to compensate for his campaigns and related
He has money, he can take on Kenyattas and wants it.
In short if you love Raila - you will soon love GIDEON.
I can help compose a couple of love songs for you.
Gideon Kipsiele Towett Weritab Chumiot
Weritab Boyot.
Arguably one richest man in Kenya - the man can pay your a billion - without losing sweat - he inherited and has built a fortune - and sliced his brothers.
Someone sent me a comment from a commentator who favors Azimio floating this Gideon idea. I don't know if he's running with what KK are saying (or maybe reads nipate for ideas for his V-log, lol). But I hope they read those comments if they are at all thinking about this boneheaded idea.
I still think they're banking on BBI coming back with Gideon getting one of the DPMs. Tutaona.
If Gideon is DP, I'm back to my apathy: will not waste my time just to vote for a ticket with Gideon Moi, pole sana. So many other things I could do on that day.
If Munya/PK/Kaloi/Karua etc. I'll queue and vote.
